Lots of people use them to turn on lights or listen to music. Maybe not your workflow but IMO you sound a little silly strawmanning like that. I don't own Alexas either, but it's obvious why 'normal folk' would like the

... And nothing of value was lost. If it's detremental to your business to not be able to track users on such a granular level, it's a bad business. I'm sure Facebook will survive here. 100% biased, can't stand that comp

My guess? Someones manager was like "Hey lets publish this wiki as a blog post." Sure, part of it is trying to seem cool and whatnot, but that's fine with me. The output is the same, more knowledge shared.

Uh, because I'm at work and wouldn't mind an additional layer of protection. Because I live stream and people try to trick me into viewing NSFW content on stream. Is this really a question?

This will never happen, quote me on it. Twitch cares a lot about their brand being separate from Amazon. The risk of being associated too closely with Amazon amongst gamers (who are often quick to cancel/escalate) is just too high, and
